EFSC Titans Gear Up for Final Conference Showdown
In a late‑season scramble to snatch a playoff spot, the Eastern Florida State College baseball squad is heading into their last regular‑season series with the citrus‑blazing curiosity of team fans and players alike. Tied for fourth place in the Citrus Conference, the Titans have the main mission:
“It’s the first shot at postseason glory since 2017.”
Home‑Team Prowess & Momentum
- Five consecutive wins on the road.
- Nine victories in the last eleven games.
- Current conference record: 17–13 (tied with SCF‑Manatee).
- Winning streak vs. rivals helps keep the hype alive.
Competing for the Play‑In Slot
- Miami Dade College – 15–15 (chewing the same fourth‑place pencil as the Titans).
- Seminole State College – also locked in at six.
- College of Central Florida – 18–12, a single game ahead of the Titans.
Coach Stadium Says
Coach Steven Brown is all about the “spirit” drive:
“Alone, the guys are thrilled to hit the bat because it’s hard at season’s end. The thin line between sweat and injury runs tight, but momentum is the secret sauce. We’re aiming to turn this season’s finish into a regional roar that carries us right into the postseason.”
So, fire up the fans, stack up the homers, and let the EFSC Titans take the trophy table. It’s not just a game; it’s a hunt, a challenge and a chance to bring that trophy back to campus in style!
EFSC Titans Set for Final Regular‑Season Games
Stellar Sluggers Stepping Into the Spotlight
Freshman Jason Mack is riding a sizzling streak—batting .555 over his last ten games, with a four‑game hit run and a hit in eight of the past ten. He just earned the FCSAA Division I Player of the Week title.
Sophomore Kevin Smith is a molten spring in Port St. Lucie’s batting lineup, hitting .327 this season and smashing four home runs. He just stole two bases on Saturday, bringing his total to 40 stolen bases—the highest ever for a Titans rookie.
Pitching Powerhouses Ready to Throw
Owen Simmons has been the Opening Day starter all season. With a 5‑4 record, a 3.71 ERA, and 69 strikeouts (fifth in the FCSAA), he’s a force to be reckoned with.
Team work in the bullpen? Michael Benedict is the spry No. 3 option, boasting a 3.19 ERA—fourth in the league. And Head Coach Brown lingo: “All starts with solid pitching, and if a starter’s off, we’ve got left‑ies and right‑ies ready to cover the strike zone.”
Upcoming Showdowns
Thursday’s opening game kicks off at 6 p.m. in Miami. The Sunday doubleheader begins at 1 p.m. on Bruce Bochy Field, with free admission and live streaming on the EFSC Titans’ YouTube channel.
